In Celtic myth, honeybees were regarded as having great wisdom and acted as messengers between worlds, able to travel to the Otherworld, bringing back messages from the gods.
"Telling the bees" may be a throwback to the idea of keeping the gods informed of human affairs.
"You must treat them as you would a member of your own family," Isaac's mother, an apiarist, would often say. Although, she preferred the term "beekeeper."
She'd been ridiculously serious about her beekeeping duties, claiming she must keep the family bee-usiness alive. Yeah, Isaac thought the pun was overdone aswell.
But when his mother dies an unexpected death, 13 year old Isaac is plagued with the guilt that somehow he's the one to blame. However, he'd like to think the blame is equally divided between himself and the bees.

Wanted by the Wolves [COMPLETED]
I'm falling for the Alpha... ... Book 1 |Highest ranking #1 in werewolf - October 18, 2022| Started : Feb. 28, 2017 Finished: May 9, 2017 I#1 in wanted - May 18th, 2018I ... I couldn't react before Jason was right in front of me, his wolf taking over by the way his eyes turned pitch black. "Mine." he growled out, taking a step closer to me. His hand brushed my cheek, and sparks erupted. Now, most people are ecstatic finding their soul mates, their second halves, whatever you want to call them. They rejoice over the thought of finding their soul mate. Years ago, I probably would have thought that would be how it turned out. A casual meeting, them feeling the sparks and being overwhelmed by the scent. But now I found myself with the one choice I had left. Go to Jason, who would be extra possessive because he was an alpha, and bring danger to the pack for being a wanted wolf, or running, and hopefully never seeing them again. My wolf's heart broke at the thought, but I was left with no choice. So I ran. ... After being the most wanted werewolf in the country, Amy Barlow decides to go into hiding. She chooses a small town on the border of the Silver Crescent Pack Territory - one of the most powerful packs in the nation. At first, changing her name to Kara Thomas and dying her hair blonde seems to be enough to throw people off her trail, but when something happens that is not planned for, her original idea crumbles. Will she be able to stay hidden long enough to not get caught? Or will she fall into the hands of a trap? With her mate close on her tail, how will she ever hide? ... COMPLETED!!!! Once the sequel is completed, I will rewrite this one. Stay tuned!Concluida

The Girl With Lycan Blood
(Completed) My back ran into the wood door as he held my arms at my side, my breath heavy and my knees weak. "Say it." He demanded. I shook my head and tried to free myself from his strong hold, but I had no luck. "I said say it!" He shouted again. I looked him dead in the eye as his grip on my wrists tightened. "No." I shake my head slightly, praying he would let go. "Anna I said-" "I won't reject you!" Annalee Evens watched her pack burn to the ground after her parents, the Alpha and Luna, died in a rouge attack along with her brother and sister. The pack never truly healed, and the pain of loosing them ruined her. She will no longer stay there in her sorrows, she is going to leave, even if that means becoming rouge. But her journey is cut short when she meets her mate, the Alpha with a temper, and with secrets. Anna will not only discover things about her mate, but dangerous aspects of herself.

Whose passion seemed to be torturing other students and holding them in a painful, totalitarian grip. The one someone finally got rid of. Once and for all. But she didn't disappear. She wasn't gone with the blow of the wind. She wasn't pushed out of existence when everything went back to normal. Her story carries on... And has more darkness than meets the eye. "Because good punishes evil, Wanting to hurt it. But little does it know, Evil comes from pain."Concluida
